“I know, right?” he agreed. It was pretty cool to find out, or at least something nice to know. He remembered when he showed it to his science teacher during class when they were talking about the body (or at least, something related... or maybe not, you never know). Yeah, that was when he was trying to suck up to her because he was failing and didn't want to right the extra credit report, so instead figured this could get him extra points. It didn't
He smiled, amused by her words and bow, hands folded under her chin. A grin appeared on his face when she looked over at the guy he had referred to. “Or I could just blame it on some imaginary person... Although, I'd probably get in more trouble for that. Or maybe they'd just think I was nuts for talking to someone who isn't there...” Nate said out loud, half to himself, half to her.
Nate dropped his jaw in fake amazement. “No. Way. You have never walked around a library in all your life?” He then smiled, letting her know he was mostly joking around. “Well then, you are talking to the right guy because I am the master of walking around libraries. Of course, that is when I'm not clumsy,” he said to her as they began walking of toward the bookshelves. He hoped he wouldn't trip over himself and look like an idiot, but he knew for a fact that he probably would. He had a tendency of tripping over his own feet.
(ooc: sorry it's kinda blah and short but i can't think a lot right now... i'm gonna be gone though until late tomorrow or later so yeah.. might not get to posting right away.)

Beatrice nodded smiliing, as she folded her fingers together tryign the trick again, though this time with out the coin. Needlesss to say the outcome was much the same, thoug she still found it fascinating. She'll have to show it to one of her teachers too. .Especially since that teacher loved litttle tricks annd puzzlles like that. Every day as they came into the classroom he'd have something up on the board.
She smiled looking back at Nate. "Perhaps, but wouldn'nt that put you at a adventage? They'd think you're crazy, and thus be carefull around you? Perhaps yeild in to a few things?" The girl suggested slyly. Her previous tutors actually wondered if she was normal.. In the end they allways came to the same conclusionn. It was a stage she was going through that hopefully would end soon. Luckly for them she was then sent away here, to the middle of the fricking no where.
Beatrice chuckled lightly at his anouncement. "Oh, great Walker of Libraries, lead the way into the quiet unknown umongst the high shelfs.' She grinnned widely, nodding her head a bit as she caught up with him,. True, she had been in the libraries, alot, and walked around them, but to thinnk, she had never actualy wondered around them, aimlessyl that is, always with a purpose or a search.
' So, telll me.... What chance is there that we will come across a great advennture 'on this trail we blaize." Beatrice smiled, tilting her head to the side as she spoke, adding that quote at the ennd. Watching if he'd catch it.. She loved the movie 'The road to ElDorado.' After all, how could one not love it? With it's comedy, and songs, and sayings! Back home, her friends and she allways teased eachother with the quotes.

Nate watched Beatrice try the trick again, but without the coin. Although, she experienced the same outcome as before. Yet, she kept smiling as she tried, looking clearly amazed by the trick. A grin swept across his face as he watched her folded fingers make an attempt at the separation of her two fingers.
He thought about her next statement, seeing a sly smile form on her face. He wondered what she was getting at. If maybe she knew this from previous past experiences. “I suppose, when you put it that way. Not sure that I'd want people to think I was crazy, but, whatever works,” he shrugged, crossing his arms over his chest as he sat back in his chair, a smile on his face as he still thought about what she had said.
Nate grinned, blushing slightly and rubbing the back of his neck self-consciously. “Um, Ma-Lady?” he said, raising an eyebrow. He offered his arm, mostly to go along with their little 'act.' When she caught up with him, he began walking aimlessly and without any true direction or road to follow, in a row of high bookshelves. He glanced over a few books, noticing only a few familiar titles, but nothing special. They seemed to be fictional stories, including things like kings and queens, towers, dungeons and dragons and whatnot. There were others too, like old nursery rhymes and such. He bit his lip out of habit as he scanned the books and remembered back when he liked for his parents to read the false stories to him, just for the joy of hearing about happy endings. If only they happened in real-life too, rather than just in books.
The boy smiled, turning his attention to Beatrice. He knew that that last part... it sounded familiar, and he knew, he knew it. Heard it from something, that was for sure. Then, it just struck him, and he snapped his fingers. “Hey! Is that from that one movie? Um, uh, what is it... Oh, The Road to El Dorado? Yeah...” he asked once the lightbulb clicked and he remembered the title. “Wow, I haven't seen that movie in a long time. I loved it when I was younger,” he said, past times seeping back to him. He smiled, shaking his head, then figured he'd answer her question. “But back to you're question, yes, I think so. You just never know.” He finished, looking at her, giving her a wink.

Beatrice shrugged with an easy smile. She couldn't blame him for not wanting to appear crazy, she didn't know many people that would want that. Perhaps if she were out in the world more often she would, but since she wasn't... "Perhaps not... but once in a while it couldn't hurt... Beatrice's eyes flashed slightly as she thought back to her home. They thought she had gone mental. Litteraly. At some point of time she was in therapy, that was fun.. But, that was her fault, to a degree, she did run away. Her parents didn't look too kindly to that...
She chuckled as he pretended to be all fancy like gentleman. It wasn't the cocky humor she seen sometimes, but pleasant one. With a grin she accepted his hand, though doing it slightly over dramatized. Thus, Beatrice kept up the act for a bit, before allowing her arm to drop. After all, it would have been rather akward to walk around like that. Her hazel eyes moved about, looking at the bookshelves, marking the books she'd want to check out later, in her head. Small smile creeped to her lips as she remembered the stack of books she has yet to read in her room. Or rather couple of stacks. Some where probably overdue, so she'd have to do something about that... eventually...
"Aye! Indeed it is! Me too! It's amazing isn't it?" Beatrice grinned perking up slightly. She had watched the movie, as some may put, one too many times in her life, but hell! It's awesome! "It was funny, I was watching it a couple of weeks ago or so, and I could quote the whole thing with out a pause... kind of creepy though... She chuckled shaking her head, as she glanced over at Nate. Small blush, adding slight, bearly visible , pink to her cheeks appeared when he winked at her. Life comes at you fast! So be prapered for adventures around every corner! Kind of dorky, but hey, why not?
